Click for information on this wonderful historic item that became Ohio’s State Bicentennial Centerpiece. Ohio celebrated its bicentennial with this historic flag found in Ashville.
Bob Hines, one of the original curators of the Ashville Area Heritage Society, has beautifully chosen and written about some of the myriad of items housed in the building that folks in Ashville, Ohio, the surrounding areas, and many who have visited the building from afar, call Ohio's Small Town Museum.
He has artfully captured the flavor of the distant and not-so-distant past of Ashville and surrounding areas and presents their history in an amazing fashion flavored with his unique sense of humor that tickles the imagination.
It was a pleasure to read his written work and see his wonderful illustrations throughout the pages. It will be good to see his book added to the section of the museum dedicated to the Ashville Area authors.
Thank you Bob for a wonderful walk back in time and for all the work you, Charlie Morrison, and others have done to keep the past alive. … Lifetime Member - Michael W Moore CLICK FOR MORE INFORAMATION…
